A weekly visit for Rashid, 89, who lives alone in Faisalabad

Rashid lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Rashid, who's 89. Rashid lives alone in Faisalabad, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Rashid loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Wishing you the best, Farah. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 19 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.

    • sending strength, Farah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
